Jersey City boxer Tyrell Wright looking to go 10-0 tomorrow night

Jersey City undefeated boxer Tyrell Wright (9-0, 6 KO) will look to boost his win totals to double-digits when he takes on defending NJ heavyweight champion Dan Pasciola (9-2) of Brick tomorrow night at the Claridge Hotel in Atlantic City. Doors open at 6 p.m.

Wright, a five-time former NJ Golden Glove champion who trains with the Bayonne PAL, last fought late in August of last year, when he defeated Nicholas Thompson of North Carolina by unanimous decision at the Bayonne Pavillion.

Wright made his professional debut in 2012, another unanimous decision victory, just five years after suffering a gunshot wound. It wasn't his first time shaking off an injury, as he won a bout at the Sands Casino in 2014 despite injuring his ankle a few days before. The bout was part of NBC Sports Network's Fight Night Series.

He also trained with heavyweight boxing champion Wladimir Klitschko during a two-week stay in Miami in 2015.
